PM Boris Manchester speech Saturday dkok: JW Time will tell. Hope you like Garlic Sausage matey!!! Crikey we’ve had WW2 still being fought on here and now we see food xenophobia! One thing is for sure I’d rather have mature, intelligent politicians such as Merkel, Macron, der Leyen and Verhofstadt ruling us than the ragbag of liars and cretins we currently have such as Johnson, Mogg, Cummings, Raab , Francois and Patel. With the excreables Farage and Corbyn on the sidelines. The Tory Party has sunk so low that it has just even re -run a convicted embezzler as a candidate in the Breckon by election. Incredible. IMHO, SBK P.S. I eat garlic with pretty much everything and since the Referendum have avoided buying any British (or American) produced food.

PM Boris Manchester speech Saturday More half-understood rubbish from you dkok. I agree with you that Greece is still in economic difficulties. The fact is that it was never a strong enough economy to join the eurozone. But is is where it is and it is being supported by the ECB and there is no great desire among the people to drop out of the euro. Mostly their problems are of their own making, particularly the governments’ failure to balance the boks by collecting taxes that are due. A similar problems exists in Italy although their economy is much stronger. You also mentioned Spain. You need to get uptodate so this may be helpful: en.m.wikipedia.org Economy of Spain The economy of Spain is the world's thirteenth-largest by nominal GDP as well as one of the largest in the world by purchasing power parity. The country is a member of the European Union, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development and the World Trade Organization. Spain has a capitalist mixed economy. The Spanish economy is the fifth-largest in Europe behind Germany, United Kingdom, Italy and France as well as the fourth-largest in the eurozone based on nominal GDP statistics. I... Spain, Ireland, Portugal, Greece and other EU countries were severely impacted by the 2008/09 banking crisis which was spawned by the US and not the EU. Perhaps you have forgotten that the UK is also recovering from the banking crisis as wages are still below 2008 levels in real terms, the 9 year programme of austerity cuts and the banking failures that needed to be bailed out? Maybe the crisis wasn’t as severe here as in some EU countries but we were nevertheless badly affected. Like many nationalist Brexiters, you have a poor grasp of EU politics. One thing that Brits understand poorly is the determination of the EU to maintain the union for fear of returning to the nationalism that led to wars between Germany, France and others over two hundred years. For that reason the UK is expendable if it threatens that unity in any way. As for your point about European Army and fiscal union these will only happen so long as the member states agree. All the countries have a veto and so this will tend to limit moves that will be resisted by individual nations and their peoples. You said It is blindingly obvious to all those with an open mind and an ounce of sense, that the EU is not going to continue in its present form I would say that people like you are blindly oblivious with closed minds which are not receptive to the economic and political realities within which the EU exists. The EU is very conscious of the risks that nationalists like you present and would not push structural changes that would result in the spread of more europhobic attitudes across the member nations. Cheers, Frog in a tre

PM Boris Manchester speech Saturday dkok: You assume that a status quo is going to be maintained. I am suggesting to you that that will not be the case, and that there will be an end to sovereign states in order to make a further enlarged EU work. You just spout some lies based on nothing… then pretend it is the future. You are creating your own Project Fear.

PM Boris Manchester speech Saturday dkok: What has changed it is the Maastricht Treaty and it is clear that since that and the subsequent accedence into the EU of an ever growing number of countries, with economies in poorer states, then the population of the UK has exploded. Last year, EU ‘net migration’ was around 57,000. Non-EU net migration, meanwhile, is about 261,000 a year. So by far, most are not from EU states… so how will leaving the EU help when the UK doesn’t bother… or want… or seemingly need… to control immigration that it currently DOES have control over?

orders Expect comments from the company with their results about their new technologies and an expanding order book. They will most likely be announcing a share placing at the same time and, as I see it the shares should see an improvement.
